Roger & Bridget, May 22nd, 2010

What can I say about Roger.
Other than a co-worker, a hard working man that comes to play every day, a pleasant person to talk to, and a good friend, I don't know!!  So one day, out of the blue, he re-joins the armed forces to protect us and keep us safe here at home.  How brave and courageous is that?  Out he goes for approximate 18 months.  To serve and protect his country he is willing to put his life on hold and do his part.  Put his 2 cents in.  All I can say is Thank You.  Thanks for going out of your way to make this country we call home a great place to live.  Protect out freedom, our life style, our family, and all we know as life.
So here's the scoop:  Got an email from Roger that was titled: "We're getting Married!!!"  I'm thinking:  Cool.  Wait.  Isn't he in .........Irak?.......or somewhere in the Arabian desert?   How does that work?  Who is he marrying?  How did he propose?>>>  Ready for this?  Over the internet.  He had his whole family back at home including his fiancĂ©e.  His brother had the ring, and when Roger proposed in the chat room, his brother presented Bridget with the ring.  How cool is that?  How boring is my life???
So Roger took a 2 week leave to come home and get married.  And here's how it works:  They did the paper thing (no church yet)  and had an awesome party which I had the privilege to photograph.  Now some time in October, after he's done serving our country, they will get married in the church (and I'll shoot that too!!! How cool),and he gets back to work.  Life goes on.  Here are some pics from the party.  More to come on this wedding in October.  See you then.
Can't wait for October!!!!!
